Summary: Common iliac artery aneurysm complicated by ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistulas is a rare but fatal condition that requires prompt treatment. Endovascular therapy is appropriate for reducing morbidity and mortality in such cases. Successful repair of the fistula can be achieved by stenting the common iliac vein with an aortic extension cuff.

Summary: Spontaneous ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistulas are rare occurrences usually associated with trauma, surgery, or aneurysm rupture. Open surgical repair appears to be a safe and feasible approach for this condition.

Summary: Iliac artery aneurysms are often associated with abdominal aortic aneurysms and other degenerative large-vessel aneurysms, but concurrent fistulization into the gastrointestinal tract and bladder is exceptionally rare. This report presents a unique case of concurrent ilio-enteric and ilio-vesical fistula arising from a large aorto-iliac aneurysm.

Summary: This study reports the closure of iliac arteriovenous fistulas associated with a post-thrombotic iliac vein occlusion by iliac venous stent recanalization. The findings suggest that primary venous stent recanalization should be considered when dealing with post-thrombotic venous obstructions with arteriovenous fistulas related to aforementioned venous lesions.

Summary: Arteriovenous fistula following iliac vein thrombosis is uncommon and its pathogenesis remains unclear. Endovascular recanalization without embolization of the fistula can effectively treat iliac vein thrombosis associated with arteriovenous fistula, leading to a good clinical outcome.

Summary: We successfully managed a high-pressure fistula with a single outflow path by performing open surgery combined with Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy, anastomotic reconstruction, and forearm median vein transposition. This case report provides an effective strategy for managing thrombosis in a hemodialysis fistula.

Summary: Abdominal arteriovenous fistula is a rare condition characterized by a triad of symptoms including pulsatile abdominal mass, bruit, and high-output heart failure. This case report demonstrates successful treatment of a patient presenting with acute right heart failure and renal failure caused by an arteriovenous fistula using endovascular repair.

Summary: Iliac vein aneurysm is a rare condition with complications including rupture, thromboembolism, and enteric fistulization. In patients with a history of surgery and gastrointestinal bleeding, veno-enteric fistula should be considered as a possible diagnosis. Surgical treatment for veno-enteric fistula involves aneurysmectomy, venorraphy, and intestinal resection.

Summary: This case report presents a successful treatment for a 42-year-old male patient with an aneurysm in arteriovenous fistula (AVF) using the excess cephalic vein branch. This method is simple and effective, maintaining the benefits of autogenous access while conserving future dialysis sites.

Summary: This retrospective study compared the outcomes of different surgical approaches for the treatment of aneurysmal arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). The results showed that interposition graft placement was associated with a higher risk of primary assisted and secondary patency loss, as well as dialysis access abandonment, compared to aneurysmorrhaphy.

Summary: Cavernous sinus dural arteriovenous fistula (CS-DAVF) is a communication abnormality between the cavernous sinus and dural arteries. Transvenous embolization (TVE) is the preferred treatment for most cases, with the trans-inferior petrous sinus (IPS) route being commonly used. However, if the IPS route fails, the transfemoral trans-FV-SOV route can be attempted. This review discusses the challenges, procedure, and prognosis of using the transfemoral trans-FV-SOV route to embolize CS-DAVFs.

Summary: This study aims to understand the natural history, rate of spontaneous regression, and ideal treatment regimen of patients with intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) and concurrent intracranial aneurysms. The results show that patients with dAVFs have a similar risk of harboring an intracranial aneurysm unrelated to the dAVF (5.3%) compared with the general population (approximately 2%-5%), and only 50% of these aneurysms are intradural.
